    So much fun! A must do if the weather permits and you are up for half an hour filled with anticipation, fun and getting soaked. Like you will literally get soaked, so come prepare and if you do not like getting wet I would not recommend this activity for you. I have done a few of the celebrity houses tour but this one has topped it because of the fun we had. Basically they can skip the house tour because the ride and the spinning was enough to make my morning. They have a locker that you can put all your stuff in and they lock it while you guys are on the move. They offer a zip lock bag for your phone in case you want to bring it with you. The tour guide and driver were super fun and their energy was contagious. I would recommend that you do arrive 30 minutes earlier because you have to check in and you are boarded into the jet boat in the order you checked in and if you arrive late they will not be waiting. Tips- -arrive 30 minutes early -leave your shoes in the locker and any personal items that you dont want to get wet. -come dressed to get wet - bring sunglasses -lots of sun screen -bring cash to tip at the end

    This was my first time using this company. The place isn't too hard to find and just Uber there, it's easier. My brother and I ended up doing their new 1 hour yacht tour (We ended up on their 48ft yacht). If you're looking to take a ride on a yacht and not fork out a bunch of $$$$. Then this is the thing for you, whether you're solo or got a few friends with you. When we arrived, 30 mins early as they asked. They couldn't find my brothers name in the system for some reason, not a huge deal, he had his comformation info. So, just make sure to keep your confirmation email and info just in case. When it was time to head to the yacht, there was only 4 passengers, which was awesome! The yacht was clean and comfortable. They had two bluetooth devices you can connect to to play your music on. A portable speaker and the stock system on the yacht. There was the captain and one crew member. Sorry but I can't remember the crew members name, but he was on point. As soon as we pushed off, he started serving the alcohol, kept my glass full the whole time and I getting them down with the quickness too! Don't really know where we went, but I don't really care lol. We when by some really nice houses and just cruised. The tour for us was around the 1hr 15min mark which was great. All in all, I will be doing this again the next time I'm in Miami.

    Went on the jet boat for my sisters birthday it was fun. Be prepared to get wet, they have a chest were you can put your belongings that they lock up. If you have a waterproof phone great if not put your phone in a ziplock cause it will get wet. There's a parking lot at the end of the block we walked threw the hotel to get the jet behind the hotel. Nearby is a publix we bought a cake some chicken and wine and enjoyed the rest of the day in a near by park.

PRO TIP: you're going to get wet. and i mean soaked. lots of twists and turns. it really is a lot of fun. i want to say thank you to jet boat miami for such a fun time! make sure to visit if you're near :)

    Bought a groupon for jet boat and banana boat ride. Very organized company. However, you may need to call a few times to get through to make reservation. They email you confirmations and reminders. The day of they even called me. Make sure you show up at least 15 minutes ahead of time to have enough time to park and walk to dock. We parked on the street to the north of doubletree. Hourly parking. We left promptly at our time. You leave belongings in a lockbox at dock. You can tKe cell phone in ziplock, but there are only a few minutes to take pics. You will get soaked! You see a few stars homes and then do the spin outs to get wet. We did Banana boat also. They pull you on a Jet ski. Water gets in your face And eyes most of the ride so you can't see much. You can't wear sunglasses or bring anything with you. I would recommend wearing swim goggles. People fell off, but I held on tight and stayed on board. I would do jet boat again but banana boat was not my fAvorite thing....that was me personally....the staff was Great and did their job.

    Jet Ski

    My girlfriend and I had an incredible experience at Jet Boat Miami. We did the early morning 30 minute jet ski rental and I would say it was well worth the money. We arrived a little late and the customer service reps happily accommodated and informed us the our guides were out doing "final tests" on the jet skis so it'd be a few more minutes anyway. We hopped on a boat that took us out to meet the jet skis in the middle of the water, went through some safety tips and operational dos and do nots then we were off! Our guide (I wish I remembered his name but he was a big Spanish dude with tattoos from New York) was super fun and informative and he also took some really great photos and videos and airdropped them to us afterwards. He also took some time to pull us together and pointed out a pod of dolpins. Really, I loved the experience.

    Found out about JetBoat from GroupOn. I purchased a 20 minute banana boat ride on a Sunday night to go Monday afternoon. We noticed the groupon said we had to book at least 48 hours in advance so we figured we may not be able to go . I called Monday morning around 9:30am and there was availability . We made a 12:30pm reservation. There were other times slots like 2pm and 4pm as well. The clerk took our voucher number over the phone and made the reservation. We arrived to the marina at 12 and parked at one of the suggested parking locations (Sun Electronics). It was $6 for the whole day Monday through Thursday. We went to the office which was quite small. There were 3 clerks working the counter but the office was a bit chaotic. There was no clear lines and people coming in and out . We waited about 15 minutes before it was seemingly our turn. We got our ticket and went to Pier 1 where you're given a life jacket and board the banana boat. In this case , it was a whale boat. The ride was bumpy and intense! It's easy to fall off into the open waters. Your boat mates help you back on. Our guide was entertaining and overall it was really fun! The boat fits 10 people so it's good for groups of friends . I would definitely return but I didn't give 5 stars because of the chaotic office experience .

    Today my friend and I did the jet ski tour for 30mins. The crew was super clear in directions and very helpful with us being comfortable on the property. It will take time to park and get to the office...... so show up an hour or more early. The office girls were quite helpful but read your fine print. We had no issues because we came prepared with our deposit, ids, etc. The guys at the dock were very friendly and our water leader lead us to an open area where we could play and go fast. The 30mins seemed like a long time but It was perfect for first timers .

    We had a blast on the boat with Tony and Capt. Ralph! Tony was funny and energetic, was on point with the "grab the bar" hand motion which was much appreciated with phones to not fly out. We loved the quick mansion house tours and even getting splashed with the 360 degree spins were exhilarating. Oh and music was dope. Thank you for the fun!

    I would probably give this place a higher review if it weren't for the beginning of our experience. I booked 2 tickets for 3:45 on Saturday. My coworker and I followed the directions in the email and arrived 30 minutes early to the dock. We are staying at the Doubletree so its literally right there. We waited the 30 minutes and apparently they were having computer issues. Well, after the hoards of other people came in with their reservations, they weren't able to pull mine so we had to walk back to their office inside the doubletree. At this point, I was completely over this and wanted a refund. All the other passengers on the boat were completely rude about the check in process saying they were there first when we were the second group there, and the staff had no idea how to handle it. The rude lady at the desk said "NO REFUNDS" in the most condescending way, and processed whatever she needed to do (although I had already paid) and we went back out. Although we were the SECOND group there, my coworker and I were the LAST group of that ride and ended up having to sit apart from each other. Completely unaccommodating and rude, but I feel most businesses in this area are like this. Anyways, once the jet boat tour started it was pretty fun. They play some music, show you some famous people's houses and do some crazy turns. You get soaking WET. There are only a few minutes to use your phone, but thats ok the experience is what you pay for. They record the entire ride and you are able to purchase the photo or video online. I think this was fun to do once, but the initial check in experience just put a bad taste in my mouth.

    I WANTED TO LIKE THIS SO BAD DON'T GET ME WRONG, I love water activities and have preciously rode a banana boat when I was younger and loved it! I was on time for my scheduled event which was at 4:30, we were told to wait until the next boat was available which wasn't a problem until a family of like 6 showed up after us and was scheduled to ride at 5 was allowed to get on BEFORE ME AND MY SPOUSE. Completely unprofessional and messed up our entire schedule for the entire evening. Was given no explanation either! Will not be recommending.

    The whole experience was great. We booked thru Livingsocial so it was a pretty good deal. Easy to find location. Customet service was good and the experience was awesome. Be preapared to get really wet. The boat does some insane corkscrew turns. Loved it, just wish it was longer.

    Having fun before the ride

    My first trip to Miami for my birthday was to take a boat ride at South Beach and this was fun! I don't ride boats but this boat does trucks as well as let you your celebrity homes near the beach. Beautiful view of the city. Would definitely do it again... Tip for our wonderful black sisters: tie your hair up...don't won't see your weave fly away...

On August 3, at 3pm I went onto the website and booked what I thought was 2 Early Bird specials for August 10th. Paying $309 online. Come Thursday, August 10, my group and I go to the address on the confirmation email. When the employees were unable to locate my reservation in their system, I showed my confirmation email. To which, we discovered the reservation was accidentally made for August 3 at 10am instead of August 10 at 10am. One employee called someone, who I can only assume is 'the boss' and told me they could accommodate my group for an additional $45 rescheduling fee per jet ski. Upon closer observation I realized that my confirmation booking email (which is sent immediately upon booking) was received at 3:02pm. I shared this and contested the additional rescheduling charge (totaling $90 for 2 jet skis) due to impossibility of performance. It should not have been possible for me at 3:02pm to book a tour that already occurred in the past, at 10am. Photos of the confirmation email attached. The employee nicely said there was nothing he could do. He did mention not seeing my name on the early bird ride reservations for the week prior, which supported my evidenced claim of the improper booking. So i asked: online it says you take walk-up's. What if I was just a walk up? I was told it would be $308. At which point I told them, I will dispute the previous charge with my bank- because that booking should never have been allowed to occur. And at this point, I was just a walk up customer with no reservation. They ran my card for another $308. I was told they would void the improper reservation, but they did not. To my surprise, I was charged an ADDITIONAL $600! This charge was performed after I left, I was never told any additional charge would occur and there was absolutely no incident or damage to justify this charge. Between 1) not refunding the improper impossible booking, 2) Attempting to shake me down an additional $90 for 'rescheduling' and 3) Charging $600 out of the clear blue sky I am OUTRAGED! This business is an absolute scam with extremely shady practices! Such a shame because the employees, Alejandro and Kevin were very friendly, the ride was great and we planned on coming back- likely multiple times! Alejandro even took great pictures of our family that I will cherish. I tipped $50 cash in appreciation for their services. And walked away pleased. Until I looked at my bank statement. I am shocked and stunned and feel OBLIGATED TO WARN THE PUBLIC. To be wrongfully out $1000 is a big deal. I have already disputed these transactions with my banks fraud department. I guess you could say this experience was more than what I bargained for.

The best part of the trip was how we had the boat exclusively to ourselves! I didn't know it'd be a private tour until the day I came. So, the boat was just a total of 3 people (captain included). The water temperature was great and the clarity was decent. We even saw two dolphins! You meetup at Whiskey Joe's at the marina and you can start your excursion immediately. I liked that you didn't need to wait around much. I was able to see some cool looking fish, a bottom feeder and a crab. You get 2 hours for the snorkeling and you're not required to wear any life vests (in fact, we weren't offered any and I didn't see any). The water is super shallow so it didn't seem dangerous at all. The water is also salty and easy to float in. The boat was nearby the main snorkeling area. The bad: The area for snorkeling was pretty small. It was an artificial reef where the fish were but outside of that area there is just seagrass and there's no living things to observe. The website says snorkeling starts at $75/pp and up but that's misleading b/c that's only the price if you have 8+ people. When I came to the marina, the worker who had me sign paperwork said that "$25/hour tip is required" when I got an email saying 15% tip is optional. My husband clarified and he said "yes, it's required" but later retracted his statement after I clarified that it was strange to give tip upfront before we even went on the excursion. However, I did already give 15% tip upfront on 50% of the value and then Zelled an additional $25 tip to the captain himself afterward. The cost for snorkeling ended up being $407 for 2 people (pricey). The interesting: The captain swam with us to lead us to the reef and then swam back and was mostly on his phone.
